How are you spending your time this fine Friday morning?
I've spent the morning alternately crying and filling out the divorce papers while my stbe went out of town with some guy for the weekend.

What fun are you having on this wonderful Friday morning?

5. I got up this morning
Edited on Fri Jun-15-07 10:50 AM by reyd reid reed
and got all slimy when I had to dig into the egg whites to put up #3 son's hair for school. I think I've lost my mind.

No...I'm sure of it.

:crazy:

And you're gonna be fine. You'll see. It'll be okay. After all, you've got us.

6. Sorry, buddy.
You're better off, but you know that. At least you're a step closer to it being (legally) over.

9. I had to go to see my divorce lawyer this morning.
My STBE, who is suing me for everything I have, left me a creepy love note/birthday card in my mailbox (which is illegal since it didn't have a stamp and I now know he was at my house) yesterday. It freaked me out big time. How can he profess to "love" me and wish me "happy birthday" while suing me and ruining my life, costing me thousands in legal bill since September of 2006 and causing me huge emotional distress?

I told the law clerk that my lawyer must call the STBE's lawyer and make him cease communicating with me in any way or else I'm going to magistrate court and getting a restraining order on Monday.

:grr:

I hope your day goes better. :hug: Divorce sucks. :hug:

10. So sorry
Yours puts mine in perspective; getting the basement sewer line cleared and locking myself out of the house.

I hope it gets better for you. :hug:

11. yuck
but this too will pass. it's good you can cry and grieve, you'll be less likely to carry the baggage into a new relationship when it's time to go there.

in the meantime, :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

as for me, I'm trying to physically recover from a busy night last night and making up a shopping list since there is *NO* food in the house and I have a hubby to feed in spite of being exhausted.

I also have to roast some coffee beans to get us through the weekend (we both work weekends and have our days off in the week)

14. I'm working at my desk
Have been since before the market opened. Had to clear my AM for a conference call which just got moved up 45 minutes.

So that freed up some quality time for the lizards and their various and sundry states of mind, which my colleagues find mystifying and yet fascinating.

18. Sounds like a tough Friday. Sorry to hear. Been there, done that.
I've spend mine flying from DC to Cincinnati, then riding to Atlanta, where I'm spending the night before going on vacation.

I don't have a ton of work hanging over me for a change...

the kid is out of school, it's a beautiful day, and I think I'll take him to lunch to celebrate the end of 5th grade!

wishing you well retro. As my mom always says, things will look better in the morning.

Edited on Fri Jun-15-07 02:09 PM by adsosletter
I didn't read through your whole post, just the header and, as a result, I posted what was a (unintentionally) a very inappropriate response to this thread. I am so sorry for your trouble, and I wish you the best.

Adso.
